Terms of Service

Plain-language terms governing your use of the Bonfiyah app and website. By installing or using Bonfiyah, you agree to these terms.

Last updated: 2026-05-05

1. Who we are

Bonfiyah is operated by Richard Hearn (sole proprietor) trading as Bonfiyah. Contact: legal@bonfiyah.com.

2. Your account

You're responsible for keeping your account credentials safe and for what happens under your account. If you suspect your account has been accessed by someone else, email us at the address above immediately.

3. Subscriptions and billing

Subscriptions are billed by Apple via your App Store account. Pricing is shown on the paywall before purchase. Free trials, if offered, convert to paid subscriptions automatically unless you cancel before the trial ends. To cancel, go to your iPhone's Settings → your Apple ID → Subscriptions, or use Bonfiyah's "Manage Subscription" link, which deep-links to the same Apple-managed page.

Refunds are processed by Apple, not by us — request a refund through reportaproblem.apple.com. We can advocate for your refund with Apple if there's a specific reason; email us.

4. Your content

You own everything you record, transcribe, and produce in Bonfiyah. We do not claim any rights to your audio, transcripts, summaries, or notes. We do not use your content to train any AI model.

5. Acceptable use

You agree not to use Bonfiyah to record people without the consent required by your jurisdiction, to attempt to reverse-engineer the app, to interfere with our backend services, or to do anything else that would be illegal or harmful. Bonfiyah's consent module is provided as a tool to help you stay on the right side of recording laws — but the legal responsibility for any specific recording is yours.

6. AI features

Pro AI features (Promise Tracker, Truth Layer, Pre-Brief, People Memory, Story Mode, Speaker Themes, action-item extraction) generate outputs based on inference over your transcripts. The outputs are best-effort; you should not rely on them as a substitute for your own judgment. Bonfiyah is not a medical, legal, financial, or other professional advisor; outputs are not professional advice.

7. Limitations of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total liability to you for any claim arising out of these terms or your use of Bonfiyah is limited to the amount you've paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim. We're not liable for indirect, consequential, or punitive damages.

8. Termination

You can stop using Bonfiyah at any time and delete your account through Settings → Privacy → Delete My Data. We can suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms, with notice and a chance to fix the issue except in cases of clear abuse.

9. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. Any dispute will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in San Francisco County, California, and you and we both consent to jurisdiction there.

10. Changes

If we change these terms in a material way, we'll notify you in-app and by email at least 14 days before the changes take effect. Continued use of Bonfiyah after a change means you accept the new terms.
